OOC: I'm here, finally.

BattleDoctor sat in his office, listening to a dry report being given to him by a fat and ugly young Igadzra. He feigned interest as the officer spoke in a low, monotonous voice.

"...and then Admiral Halra and the 3rd fleet moved into Mark, where Garrison Commander Juta ordered the loading of 20 additional SAE's to the I.S.S. Bounty. The fleet then proceded to make a raid into Terapin, where they downed 3 fighters then retreated..."

BattleDoctor rolled his head back, yawning. "Very interesting, officer, but I think I'll dismiss you now. You can give my secretary the report and I'll get you a response by tomorrow morning."

"Yes, sir" said the Igadzra officer as he exited BattleDoctor's spacious office. BattleDoctor then began to read through some equally dry and boring paperwork, signing off on various bills and such. He was interrupted, however, as another Igadzra entered his office.

"Sir!" said the Igadzra, saluting. "A message for you, top priority."

BattleDoctor looked up and, recognizing the person, said "Ah, hello Admiral Fera. A message, you say?"

"Yes, sir. One of my border patrols under the command of Commodore Farsag reports that there are Azdgari messengers, requesting a ceasefire and a joint assault on the Zidagar."

BattleDoctor grinned, showing his rows of sharp, shining teeth. "Excellent. I like the idea."

Admiral Fera's eyes widened and his jaw dropped slightly, before he regained his composure and said, "Sir, an alliance with the hated Azdgari? I'm not sure if that's wise..."

BattleDoctor ignored the Admiral, then continued. "Of course I must ask the Council first. Fera, could you open a channel to Council Station on my wallscreen?"

Admiral Fera's expression turned sour at the mention of the Council. Unlike most Igadzra, he often questioned their methods and disliked the way they ordered the Strands around. "Yes, sir." he said acidly, picking up the remote and dialing Council Station.

Fera stood to one side of the room as BattleDoctor composed himself and readied to talk to one of the Council. The wallscreen came to life, first showing the insignia of the Council and then the darkened figure of a Council member. "Yes, Igadzra?" said the Council member.

BattleDoctor spread his arms and bowed low to the Council member. "It is always a pleasure to talk to one of the esteemed Council members. I am honored that you accept my request for a conversation." He paused, expecting a response, but when none came BattleDoctor continued. "I have contacted the glorious Council on a matter of great importance. The Azdgari have contacted us, asking that we cease fighting and combine our forces against the Zidag-"

"Absolutely not, Igadzra." snapped the Council member.

"But, sir, it-"

"No."

"As you wish, my master." Before BattleDoctor was done speaking, the Council member had cut the communications link. Admiral Fera bared his teeth and began to say something, but BattleDoctor cut him off. "Fera, you heard the Council. Notify your border patrols to respond the Azdgari."

"Yes, sir." snapped Admiral Fera as he stormed out of the office.

------------------
My state bird is the finger.

Hmm, looks like my summons worked.

OOC: Red, if you're going to post, answer my question! Are the Nebulae explored, or not? Also, if you need a Council player, I'll do it. All I'm doing right now is researching stuff, and that's probably all I'll be doing for this story.

==========

The AP cannon was complete. When tested, it had a range of almost twice the phase cannon, and its rate of reload was faster. It still did next to nothing against armor, but the improved range made up for that. Keld was also complete, with eight AP turrets having been installed. Five or six SAO launchers would also be put on once that upgrade was done. The construction workers had begun a base inside Jamuraa, another asteroid in Smott.

Next on Asriel's list of upgrades was engines. Work was beginning on Anti-Gravity engines. They would increase the speed somewhat, but more importantly, give a ship almost instant acceleration. When this upgrade was done, work could be started on a Crescent Fighter upgrade.

==========

The spy that had been captured in Priat had been interrogated on Mira. All that was gleaned from him was that he worked for Payback, the chief of the Northern Tip Renegades. The chief interrogator immediately sent of a message to Admiral Benden of the MCD, warning him of this new threat.

The spy that was captured in Priat was working for the Northern Renegades. Apparently, they have a new leader; his name is Payback. We may want to be more careful about these kinds of intrusions in the future. Ky'lia out.

Message to: Azdagari ship. From: Emalgha high command
Message reads:
Do not presume us fools Azdagari. We intercepted a transmision from the human fleet claiming them to be renagades. Until you arrived we had not heard of humanity; then you appear and suddenly we are attacked by them. So we have reached the conclusion that you led them here. Leave here and tell your leaders that the can expect neither aid nor cooperation from us.

Aben Zin, Emalgha High Elder.

Message ends
"Well Lord Zin, the message is sent. May the Gods have mercy on our souls."
"Thank you Admiral. Our immediate quarrel is with the Voinians however. Without the mines of Kelmaon our warship production is crippled- we must retake the system. We can worry about these human renagades and Azdagari when we have done so. Prepare a battlegroup."

OOC: Since for some reason most of my entire fleet was in Kelmaon when spl-cadet attacked, I'm going to have to assume that my fleet was actually larger, so that I actually do have a fleet.
IC:
Soon 10 Warships and 25 fighters were readied for hyperspace. Only 15 Warships and 40 fighters remained behind. With the E.S.S Dragoon at the fore the fleet dropped into hyperspace.
From the Emalgha headquarters Elder Zin watched them go.
"Good luck Admiral." He murmered as the fleet disapperaed of the viewscreen.

OOC2: Remember, Kelmaon is held by Voinians. Give me a chance here!

OOC: So are the Adzgari going to give me phase weaponry or not?
---------------
Enough was enough. The renegade fleet signaled for backup, hoping to destroy the UE fleet. And the backup came. A dozen turncoats and 30 helians jump into Troub, directly behind the UE fleet. Kraits are quickly launched and sent after the UE fighters, destroying several before the UE fighters react to the surprise and begin evasive manuevers. However, the evasive manuevers are in vain as they are outnumbered and surronded by the more manueverable kraits.
Meanwhile, the two renegade fleets launched a massive barrage of SAD's and dispy rockets. Although the clustered destroyers worked well on the offensive, it was disasterous on the defensive. It simply provided a larger target. Following up on the barrage were the upgraded needles. Although individually they did hardly anything, the UE forces were weakened from the earlier barrage and there were a great deal of needles. The cluster proved even more disasterous as the UE ships began to explode. The explosions destroyed the already heavily damaged UE ships nearby, setting off a chain. Within minutes the survivors ran for their lives, before the renegades could destroy them all.

Nelson, please look at my last post in page 1. And Asriel, I don't think the nebulae have been explored yet. They're probably just on the map for reference once the nebula explorations begin. And yes, Nelson's post will probably be revoked. One of the things you shouldn't do in this kind of webstory is a one-post battle. If you post a battle, you should wait for the opponent to respond. But don't worry. Even I was a newbie at roleplaying at some point in my life...can't remember when though Oh and FYI, OOC is Out of Character. Ok, too many abbreviations....

Payback scratches his chin. He has just received word of a large battle occuring between the humans and their dissonent renegades. He wonders how he may be able to influence this conflict, but decides to leave his South Tip forces at bay for now. Maybe in the future, they can be used ot apply some leverage.

At this point, he needs better ships, with the numbers being inferior to intruding governments. And the only thing he can think of is armor. Having armor would be a huge advantage. While decreasing maneuverability, it would triple the survivability of his ships. Save developing his own, he knows the quickest way to aquire this technology is to offer aid to the Voinians; with his new fase weapons, the UE doesn't stand a chance, with their primitive technology. He sends a crescent fighter to Borb Station, deep in Voinian territory, to offer aid in exchange for some of their armor technology. Payback also thinks about creating himself a backdoor, and begins research on a weaker type of armor. It would not be as heavy or cumbersome as Voinian armor, but still decrease phase weapon impact a greta deal more.

OOC: Nelson, since the renegades have replied, Your post can stand, minus the Zachit help. The Zachit can post on their own.

OOC: The Human renegades already have phase technology.. I meant to give it to them earlier.

OOC: The Voinians never jumped into Kelmoan, and that's final. Kelmoan still belongs to the Emalgha, and only 1/3 of the Emalgha fleet was destroyed in Kelmoan.

OOC: Asriel, you are the miranu. take two quick pots of research and the northern nebula is yours.

OOC: Payback, the Azdgari didn't attack the Rock- The Zidigar did. Edit your ship to say "Zidara" instead of Azdgari Warship.

Azdgari
The Azdara above Emalgha space, and growls back at the High Elder.. Have it your way Fools... We tried to let you in on the profit, but you refused... You are hereby an Enemy of the Azdgari Empire!" The Azdara attacks, disables, and destroys an Emalgha fighter, and shoots out of the system.

The Azdara reaches Azdgari command, and the pilot meets with emperor Radz'na..
"Sir, the Emalgha have mocked us! They ask for their own death!"
"Young one, you must understand. The Emalgha dont even have a hundred ships under their command, and not even four planets. They are not a priority."
"Sir, they could contact the miranu and make an alliance!"
"Hmm good point... I'll send an Azdgari Warship to DSN-8029, to blockade their space... You're excused now. I have other business...."

Message to: Human Renegades
From: Azdgari
Greetings, friends. We have a new mission for you. We are about to launch a major assault on a heavily defended station, and we need all the help we can get. We are asking for several helians (filled with voinian space mines to be used as kamikazes), in addition to you withdrawing every ship from your space to help us win this. We, the Azdgari, swear to regain all of your systems and give them back to you, plus several billion credits to be split amongst you. We have not asked anything from you, so you owe this to use. We promise you will get your due reward.

Message to: Strand Renegades (Payback)
From: Azdgari
Greetings. We are the Azdgari, as you know. We are asking for a close alliance.. we will give you military defense wherever you wish, shield regenerators and maneuverability upgrades in exchange for military support in a few posts when we make a major attack in a few posts. We will give you all the credits your pilots will ever need, for us to win, we ask you to send every single ship, however we will repair and regain any systems you lose, and then some.

25 azdgari warships are sent to both Muid and Plogok, and soon over a hundred fifty azdaras are in each system, reigning heavy fire unto the Zidigar attackers.

OOC:Righty! I got permission to join from REDCHIGH;I am an independent mercenary,commander of the Dark Angels,a merc group.Details below whoops,I seem to have lost my mail I think I had 1 modified Crescent Warship,15 Aradas, 1 Miranu Light Freighter, and 25 Crescent Fighters REDCHIGH,could you remind me?
Anyways,I remember the basic idea,and much of the other stuff I wrote.
Here goes:

Commander Saraine Khade leaned back in his command chair on the Fallen Angel ,a modified Crescent Warship.
Saraine was particularly proud of his genius with modifiying the Fallen Angel ; a neat idea of modular fighter pods had given it six Crescent Fighters,lined along the wings.That meant the ordainary fighter bay could be removed and replaced with more space for SAD ammo.
The Strandless Militia could have kept his talents at modifying ships,but no.Damn fussy outcasts.You go to Neslaut just one for the best targeting arrays credits can buy,and what do they do?Throw you out.
More fool them.
Saraine had left back to Renegade space in what was then the Snow Angel.
He'd thought to redeem himself by destroying Renegades,but like their Strand parents,the Strandless were unforgiving of any mistakes.
He could not return,so he had continued to loot Renegade ships,and amassed quite a fortune by stealing their credits and plundering their cargoes.
This had also supplied an impressive amount of warship hulks;eventually he'd hired help to turn several mangled Laziras and a Crescent Warship into a small repair station,the Angel's Lair.The Angel's Lair no longer had drive capabilities,but if it was towed to hyperspace range it could jump,and salvaged microfactories from Renegade warships had turned it into a good,if ramshackle,repair base.Occasionally Saraine would put together old parts into new ships too,making new designs.Unfortunately Saraine's Heavy Arada and Speed-Lazira had both been destroyed recently,so he had no prototype ships right now.
The Angel's Lair also had SAD launchers and a lot of SADs for defence.
From his vantage point,Saraine was brought back to the present by one of his Aradas flying past.
They were good ships,with cargo space replaced for SAD ammunition space and launchers added.
It was followed by several normal Crescent Fighters,brought along by Militia pilots defecting from the Strandless in search of glory or credits,and a single Miranu Light Freighter which he'd traded from a Miranu trader for a used Lazira.
The Freighter was modified into a secure transport,and now made most of the Dark Angels group's cargo runs.
Saraine drained his glass of eggnog( :)) and slept,aboard the Fallen Angel , surrounded by the warships and repair base of the Dark Angels,in the DSN-5468 system.

Saraine examined the latest financial reports with unease.
Several Aradas had been heavily damaged,and it appeared that some raiders were beginning to run from Dark Angel ships.Profits were going down.
Projections indicated that at the current levels the Dark Angels would becme financially unviable within three weeks!Saraine had to find a source of income,and fast.

Skradz'na looks out to the fleet amassing in the Kade system, and frowns. Although there are almost 180 Adzgari vessels out, with a scant 35 on the frontier, they all are no match for the most heavily defended station in the galaxy. They need more firepower- and REDchigh knows the perfect way. He calls a Battlefleet of 60 Azdgari aradas and 30 Adzgari warships, and sends them off to get diamonds- their source? Paaren.
----------
Later that Week

OOC:Bakoom,in ST Renegade space,ought to have lots of diamonds.After all, diamonds form in volcanos,and the Bakoom text states that Bakoom is a highly tectonically active world,with earthquakes and volcanos everywhere.

Saraine spent some time getting the Angel's Lair to attach to the Fallen Angel's tractor beams,and then the Dark Angels moved to Tollb.
Saraine was still wondering,however,where precisely they would be assaulting. He suspected Terapin, but wasn't sure. Still, that amount of credits would be enough to keep the Dark Angels running for a decade.

The Dryad was finally complete! The MCD now had yet another weapon to do battle with, and the MSDD would have a small fleet of their own to protect their freighters. The research base inside the asteroid of Jamuraa was also complete. The MSDD would now start an upgrade of the Crescent Fighter. It would be armed with six swivel phase cannons, a few SAOs, and would be somewhat faster than the original.

The third asteroid base was also started, inside the asteroid of Tolaria.
